Today, we are talking about the importance of maintaining a positive team culture and addressing issues or "yellow flags" before they become bigger problems. We can't stress enough how important it is to listen to your gut instincts, have difficult conversations, establish clear expectations for employees, and use disciplinary processes and employee handbooks to protect the business culture. The key topics discussed in this episode include: - Why it's important to remove negative employees from a business - Team culture, appearance, and setting expectations in a business - Employee disciplinary process in a retail setting - Employee handbooks: documenting disciplinary actions, and reference checks - Listening to your gut instincts - And so much more!
